On October 31, a traffic jam of trucks formed at the checkpoint in the Kant area, located on the "Black River," as they were exiting Kyrgyzstan into Kazakhstan. The drivers were waiting in line; however, some vehicles began to pass out of turn under the escort of the inspector. "We stopped one of the trucks and the inspector who was escorting these vehicles," they reported.
According to the drivers, the inspector initially denied it, claiming he did not know any of the truck drivers. "We all saw that this is not the first time he has allowed trucks to pass. At first, it was the pushers, and now it's the inspectors. Who will we see next? We stand in line for hours, while the tax base operates inefficiently. We demand action," they added.
